Apple Ads
Get your app to the top of the App Store.
Apple Ads put your app in front of iPhone and iPad users at the moment they search the App Store — so the downloads you pay for come from people who were already looking.
Example for illustration. App shown is fictional.

Questions about Apple Ads
What are Apple Ads?
Apple Ads (previously Apple Search Ads) are ads inside the App Store. They show your app to iPhone and iPad users while they search or browse, so people can download it in one tap.
Which placement should we start with?
Usually search results ads. People searching for what your app does are the most likely to download it. We add other placements once search is working profitably.
How do you measure results?
We track installs and cost per install in Apple Ads, and connect your app's analytics or attribution tool so you can see which installs turn into active users or paying customers.
How much budget do I need?
You can start with a modest test budget. We'll suggest a starting point based on your category and how competitive its keywords are.
